Of Today We Say

Hearts longing

Deepest breath

Beg to rest

--of today we say

‘Farewell’

Caress of finger

Familiar face

Beauteous everything

--of today we beg

‘Stay’

Borrowed days of living

The sleep of hard reality

Falsely padded to shield

--of today we agree

‘False’

Words of bitter truth

You assure me they are true

Survive, yes, but live too?

--of today we demand

‘Proof’

Soothing balm

Of reminded King of Time

You tried

--of today we beg, please

‘End’
